The wind was down so I decided to continue on my trip up Tomales Bay.
I simply went from where I turned around last time up to Nicks Cove and back.
Finally, I got to see some sea lions and now I am sure that I can tell the difference between them and harbor seals. Harbor seals are cuter and quieter, while sea lions have aggressive/acrobatic dances.
More interesting, though were the surprise wildlife I saw. I was going over a shallow area and I so a lot of action in the water and some rounded, shark-like fins sticking out of the water. When I look closer it was a group of sting rays. They would swim with their fins out of the water. Some even bumped into my kayak. Definitely a first for me.

Hi Peter - long time no see! I've seen the bat rays at Drake's Estero, but not yet at Tomales Bay. There are leopard sharks at both locations, and I've also read that grey whales come into Tomales Bay sometimes. I went to look for them once, but no luck...
